For parents and couples

The VI app is an everyday tool for all couples and parents. Here you get help to strengthen the couple's relationship and to grow as a parent. The VI app has been developed by some of Norway's foremost professionals in the field of cohabitation and parenting, including Catrin Sagen and Frode Thuen. The Directorate for Children, Youth and Families has supported the development.

In the VI app, you get professional advice, reminders and help to talk about important topics - built on research-based knowledge. You can choose to work with the couple guide, the parent guide or both.

The VI app is for everyone, both couples and parents who struggle and those who don't find it so complicated. We believe that couples and parents who spend a few minutes every now and then focusing on their relationship or their parenting role can achieve a lot.

WHO IS BEHIND THE VI APP?

The VI app has been developed by some of Norway's foremost professionals in the field of cohabitation and parenting, including Frode Thuen (psychologist, professor and regular columnist in A magazine), Catrin Sagen (psychologist, course instructor and author), Irene Elgen (paediatrician and professor) and Øystein Elgen (doctor and specialist in psychiatry). Rachel and Kristian, who had three boys under the age of two, have taken the initiative for the VI app - because they themselves needed a simple everyday tool to support themselves both in their relationship and in meeting the children.
